March 2019 – “This is the story of the Guareschi family, a race with the Guzzi DNA for the last two generations and a point of reference for admirers of the Mandello Eagle across Europe, to whom they provide much more than a dealer would normally offer: meticulous mechanics, unfindable parts, a genuine love of vintage models. And a boundless passion for racing. A life devoted to a brand and its history. A brand Vittoriano and Gianfranco, the sons of Claudio, the company founder, are now bringing back to the racetrack”.

An icon of Italian style, the Mandello "settemmezzo" is the perfect base for the realisation, with a special kit, of a racing bike everyone can ride.
The outfitting of Moto Guzzi V7 III bikes with the obligatory kit required to compete in races – developed by Guareschi Moto, a highly-regarded Moto Guzzi preparer in the sporting community too – can be handled directly by the team registered to compete in the Trophy or managed by the Moto Guzzi sales network.
The kit includes dampers, exhaust system, half-handlebars, windshield, one-seat saddle and other details to enable the Moto Guzzi V7 III to compete on the racetrack but still remain an easy, intuitive motorbike, ideal for more or less expert “gentlemen riders”, but also for young bikers trying out their racing skills for the first time.

GC CORSE: VARANO KIT. “This is a revolutionary kit,” the Guareschis explain. “The idea came from requests from numerous Guzzi bikers who wanted to transform their road bikes into racers. By improving drivability, agility when going into bends and changing directions, the kit enables everyone to race in the various championships.
The kit can be mounted on a 2- or 4-valve Guzzi Big Block base with a CARC shaft drive. It comprises a frame, saddle mount, dashboard mount, fuel tank, blow-by tank, footpegs, half-handlebars, fairing, tail and tank cover. The frame is a round-tube assembly weighing 7 kg. Other technical data: wheelbase 1470; rake 26°. The bike’s performance is accompanied by an extremely appealing aesthetic.”
HISTORY. “Fifty years ago, on the outskirts of Parma, Claudio Guareschi achieved his dream… His irresistible passion would tie the destiny of the Guareschi family to the destiny of the dealership, which has always been loyal to Moto Guzzi, a brand capable of creating motorcycles that leave their mark on the heart of everyone who rides them.
The inventive genius of the founder, subsequently combined with the expertise of his sons, Vittoriano and Gianfranco, has made Guareschi Moto a name that is recognised and appreciated across Italy and Europe.
In addition to selling Moto Guzzi bikes and running a garage, the historic Parma dealer has extensive experience in restoration work and an innate aptitude for the world of racing. Guareschi Moto has therefore become part of the Moto Guzzi story, after clocking up successes in the national championships and in important international races, inspired by the intention of reviving the former glories of the historic Moto Guzzi name.
MOTO GUZZI TRIUMPHS WITH THE GUARESCHI BROTHERS (2017 ITALIAN VINTAGE ENDURANCE CHAMPIONS, MAXI CLASSIC CATEGORY AND 750 TT CATEGORY), IN THE FOUR-HOUR VINTAGE ENDURANCE. RIDING A MOTO GUZZI LE MANS, FITTED OUT BY THE FAMOUS PARMA DEALER GUARESCHI MOTO, GIANFRANCO AND VITTORIANO TAKE THE MANDELLO EAGLE BACK TO ITS GLORY DAYS, IN A RACE VALID FOR THE ITALIAN AND EUROPEAN ENDURANCE VINTAGE CHAMPIONSHIP (Imola, 3 September 2017).
Commitment, experience and tradition are the ingredients that have decreed the Guareschis’ success over the years. A visceral passion for Moto Guzzi has created a unique story in a unique region.”
